Gongol Mountain                                                     [MC.03.04]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Go back to the little village and go talk to the mayor. He'll open a new way
for you to go, so go there, and you'll end up outside again. Walk to the small
house that's north, and talk to the guy inside to get bombs. Grow again and go
north. Look at the statue, and it'll explode. Later, you can use these as
checkpoints. Go west, then south from there. Blow up the rocks with your bombs
and continue down the path and enter the next screen.

Use the mushroom to get to the other side. Shrink and enter the house if you
want, but it has no purpose for now. Blow the rocks away, so you can enter
at a later time though. Go north, and bomb the blocked opening straight 
ahead of you. Enter it, and open the chest for 20 shells. Now go back to the
previous screen and go north, to the next screen.

Once again, blow away the rocks, so you can easily walk to the various parts
of the lands later. Go west from here, to end up at the screen where your
house is. When you walk a bit south, you'll see another statue that'll explode
when you look at it. Do so. Go a bit further south. See the blocked door? 
Remember it, since you'll be back there pretty soon. You can visit your house
if you want, but there is nothing to do here. Explore a bit if you want, but
there is only one more thing you can do from here. Go all the way north, until
you are in front of the town (don't enter it yet). From here, go west a bit,
and down the stairs. Bomb the rocks to gain entrance to a cave full of 
fairies. In case you don't know about these yet; they will return your full
health, and you can catch them in a bottle, so when you die, you'll get all
your health back. Now, go back to town.

A musician will talk to you, and allow you to merge two broken stones together.
When you do so, he'll open something, make something appear etc. It'll be done
for you now, but in the future, you can do so by standing next to him and
pressing the left shoulder button. Ah yes, he also gives you a bag, so you can
store the stones. You'll find most randomly, so keep in mind I can't give a 
list of locations for the stones. You can get them by defeating enemies, or
destroying objects, like grass, rocks etc. He'll open the blocked path I told
you about in the last paragraph. Go there, to find a piece of heart. Now go
back to town.

You can explore quite a lot here, so go ahead, and try it. I'll list the 
things you should really do, but feel free to explore more. Knowing your way
around town is good.

* In the southwestern part of the town, near the bridge with the cat on it,
  is a house, where you can train yourself. For now, go there to learn the
  Spin Attack.
* There is a house with rupees on the roof. This is the shop. Go there to buy
  yourself a bigger wallet. You'll have to pay 80 rupees for it, but it's 
  worth it.
* East of the bridge is a woman that has chickens at her little ranch. 
  However, they are all over the place. Agree to find them. The first time,
  you'll need to bring back 2 chickens in 25 seconds (don't grab the gold one,
  it'll fly away). You'll get 10 shells as reward. Also, you'll get 20 rupees
  because you are such a fine, young lad. The second time, you'll have to
  return 3 chickens in 25 seconds. The rewards will be 10 shells and 30
  rupees. The third time you'll have to get 4 in 30 seconds, and you'll be
  rewarded with 20 shells and 40 rupees. The fourth time (it just keeps
  going, doesn't it?) you'll have to get 5 in 45 seconds, and you'll be
  rewarded with 20 shells and 90 rupees (you can include the gold one this
  time). After that... 50 seconds for 5 chickens, for 30 shells and 50
  rupees. After that (*yawn*) it's 45 seconds for 5 chickens, with a 
  reward of 30 shells and 90 rupees. If you keep one doing this, you'll get
  a piece of heart, but we can't do that for now, since we need more
  equipment. Besides, my wallet is filled with 300 rupees by now ;p
* Got 300 rupees? Good! Go back to the shop and buy yourself the boomerang.
  We'll need it sooner or later.
* West of the shop is a bar. You can find the musician here to get yourself a
  new path. It doesn't matter if you can't do it now, since it'll take a while
  until you are able to get to the chest he'll show. I'll get back to it 
  later.
* Remember the place where you got your shield? Go there, and suck the dust
  away. Later on, someone will appear on that spot.
  
Done? Then go to the northwestern part and do the Spin Attack in front of the
guard, he'll let you through. Continue to the next screen.

Go south from here, and climb down the ladder. Bomb the path to the right, and
defeat the Deku Scrub. He'll sell you a bottle for just 20 rupees, so buy it.
After that, go all the way west, until you end up at the mountains. We're
getting closer to the dungeon ;p

You can bomb the cave open, but the Deku Scrub inside has nothing to sell, so
you might as well ignore it. Climb the left vine to get 20 rupees. After that,
grab your bottle and fill it with water. Now use the water on the plant you
see, and it'll grow to a vine, which you can climb. Go around the platform
you see, until you end up near the beginning again, but a platform higher.
You'll see a stone, a fence, nothing, a fence and a stone. Place a bomb 
between the two fences and you'll open a new path. Enter the cave and climb 
the ladder.

Place a bomb near the broken stone, and then use the big stone to shrink. 
Walk to the green water (or whatever toxic stuff that is). When you reach it,
put some in your bottle, and go back to the big stone, and grow again. Jump 
down and continue going west. If you want bombs, keep going west and defeat
the Deku Scrub in the cave. He will sell them. If you are not, go north when
you can and enter the cave (after blowing an opening in the wall). Use the
mushrooms, and get your way out of there, until you are at the higher 
platform.

Use the small tornado to fly to the west, and get up that platform. Go all the
way west, then go north, until you end up at a new screen. Place a bomb near
the wall to reveal a new cave. In the cave you'll find a piece of heart, but
also a green stone and 50 rupees. Now go back to the screen with all the dust,
and find a ladder to climb.

Kill the flies here, and then clear all the dust with your vacuum-cleaner. You
should be able to find a small crack in the floor, and a stone, so you can 
shrink. When you did that, go to the west, and enter the small path that leads
to a bean. Pick up the bean, and place it in the hole you'll find. After that,
go through the crack in the floor. You'll find a red stone here. And finally,
go to the east and climb the vine. In this area, there is a chest with a blue
stone, go get that too, then return to the stone and grow again. Use the green
water on the bean, and it'll grow. Climb up to the next screen.

Go left, and climb the ladder. See the sharp rocks with the space between 
them? Place a bomb there, and enter the cave for faries (catch one in a 
bottle now) and another piece of heart. Go back, and all the way to the east.
When you see a bridge, cross it, and place a bomb near the wall. Yes, another
hidden cave. Get a blue stone from the chest here. Go up the stairs, and get
to the other side (you should be able to do that).

Use the wind here to get to the west. Climb the ladder, and go all the way to
the east, until you find a cave that's blocked. Bomb the entrance open, and
defeat the Deku Scrub. But a ring that allows you to climb rock surfaces for
just 40 rupees. Go outside and climb the surface on the right. Enter the cave
and just remember it, since I'll tell you to get back here later. Go back
outside, and climb 2 rock surfaces down.

Destroy the 2 rocks (use your vacuum-cleaner, if you didn't know yet), and 
pull the mushroom all the way back to get to the other side. Look at your map
and search for the big rock surface all the way to the west. You need to get 
there and start climbing north. Just after reaching the new screen, go east,
and a bit north. You'll see a platform that seems to lead to nothing. But as
you may have guessed, you can bomb the wall to open a cave. Enter the cave,
throw a bomb in the water, and a big fairy will appear. When she asks you a
question, be sure to choice the third answer, or you'll get zapped. She'll
give you a bomb bag that can carry 30 bombs. Go back outside and start 
climbing north, until you reach a new screen. From there, go east and use the
mushroom to get to the other side.

It'll start raining. O no! The green cap will get wet too! Use the stone to
shrink, and go to the east. When you get to a small path, watch out for the
rain, because it can hurt you. Keep going east, and use the other stone to 
grow again. Push the rock on the left into the hole. Push the other rock left,
2 times up, left, 2 times up, 4 times left, down, 10 times left, 4 times up 
and to the right. Push the other rock out of the way and climb down the
ladder.

Navigate your way through the cave, and when you're outside again, go to the
east and enter the cave. At the other side are some bottles. Remove them with
your vacuum-cleaner and use the mushroom to get to the other side. Go down
the stairs. When you find yourself at a broken bridge, throw a bomb at the
button to fix the bridge. Leave the cave by going south and enter the new
cave you find.

Push the rock down, 2 times left, 2 times down, 3 times left, up, left, up,
left. Push the statue away, and go down the stairs. Navigate to the chest 
(it's easy, really) and get the blue stone from it. Now leave the cave.

Shrink, and take the path in the west. From there, enter the small city of
miners. Keep following the path until you reach the blacksmith. Talk to him,
and he'll fix your broken sword. Go up the stairs, and talk to the guy. He'll
get out of the way. Leave the miner-city.

Use the stone to grow again, and use the statue to create a new checkpoint.
Climb the stairs north and enter the second dungeon.
